If I rent a car for two consecutive days, can I drive the car back to your parking lot on the first night? And then pick up the car the next morning? Because I really don’t know where I can park where I live.

Helpful staff (Ricardo is great), quick and with 0 issues. Car return is a bit more challenging (if returning after hours), but explanations I was given were perfect.
